'''Kirnberger's atom''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[5-limit]] [[comma]]. It is the difference between the [[81/80|syntonic comma]] and a stack of ~~eleven~~ [[32805/32768|schismas]]; {{monzo| 161 -84 -12 }} in [[monzo]] and 0.01536093 [[cent]]s in size.

'''Kirnberger's atom''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[5-limit]] [[comma]]. It is the difference between the [[81/80|syntonic comma]] and a stack of 11 [[32805/32768|schismas]], between 12 syntonic commas and 11 Pythagorean commas, and between the [[2048/2025|diaschisma]] and 11 [[32805/32768|schisma]]s; {{monzo| 161 -84 -12 }} in [[monzo]] and 0.01536093 [[cent]]s in size.

[[16384/10935|Kirnberger's fifth]], which is the perfect fifth of [[3/2]] flattened by a [[schisma]], is practically identical to seven steps of [[12edo]], which realizes a rational intonation version of the equal temperament. Kirnberger's atom arises as the tiny interval by which twelve of Kirnberger's fifths exceed seven [[octave]]s, (16384/10935)<sup>12</sup>/2<sup>7</sup>.
